How does 47shops use and store the information it collects?

As a general matter, 47shops may use the Personal Information you disclose to 47shops to improve and provide the Website, the Services and 47shops' other products and services, and for the specific purpose that you gave 47shops your Personal Information. More specific details on how 47shops use your information follows below.
47shops may use Personal Information to create and authenticate your account, to process transactions you request such as software license purchases in order to perform any contract you have entered into with 47shops, to provide you with the customer and technical support and to communicate with you about your account and 47shops' products and services.

47shops may also use Personal Information to offer, market or advertise to you 47shops products and services. While such 47shops products and services may reference, incorporate or include third-party products and services, 47shops will not use your Personal Information to independently offer, market or advertise third-party products and services unless 47shops first obtains your consent to do so.
From time to time, 47shops may use your Personal Information to send important notices, such as important product updates and communications about purchases as well as changes to 47shops' terms, conditions, and policies.

Where you consent to 47shops doing so, 47shops may use your Personal Information to send you direct marketing communications.

47shops limits the use of Personal Information to the purposes identified in this Privacy Policy and for which you have provided explicit consent. In accordance with established policies and procedures, 47shops retains Personal Information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the stated purposes, unless it is required by law for a different period or 47shops has the consent of the individual.
In accordance with established policies and procedures, 47shops will periodically destroy or erase any Personal Information that is no longer needed.
47shops may use User Communications in the same way as 47shops uses Personal Information.

For example, if you contact 47shops for technical support, 47shops may use your communications to provide technical support to you.
47shops may use Server Information to provide you with technical support services and to maintain, evaluate, improve and provide 47shops products and services. 47shops may also use such information to investigate unlicensed (and therefore unauthorised) uses of 47shops' software.

Such disclosures could take place in the context of an investigation or to prevent or take action against illegal activity, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of 47shops's Terms of Service or other 47shops agreements, or as otherwise required by applicable law. Where this is the case 47shops will endeavour to give you notice of such disclosures, to the extent that 47shops is lawfully permitted to do so.
47shops may disclose your Personal Information to affiliated third parties that assist 47shops in providing maintaining, evaluating, improving and providing the Website, the Services and any other 47shops products and services. 47shops may disclose your Personal Information to affiliated third parties for the purposes of offering, marketing or advertising 47shops products and services to you (such 47shops products and services may reference, incorporate or include third-party products and services).
